Roberto Firmino, Saido Mane and Phillipe Coutinho. The front three of the Reds have been creating havoc in the Premier League and Coutinho has been a major reason for the Red’s rise to the top of the Premier League table.

Coutinho’s stats show clearly that he is the best playmaker at the moment. 5 goals scored, 5 assists, 30 chances created and 8 interceptions show just how important the Brazilian magician is to Jurgen Klopp.
